SAM Faiers glowed in an off-the-shoulder LBD as she showed off her baby bump on her birthday.
The 31-year-old reality star, who is pregnant with her third child, celebrated her birthday in style with partner Paul Knightley and their two children.
They stayed at the exclusive Rosewood Hotel in London and dined at Almare Italian restaurant in Knightsbridge.
Sam wore an off-the-shoulder, knee length black dress with a love heart neckline and finished the look with pointed stilettos.
She styled in her hair with an elegant light wave and opted for a natural makeup look.
Paul looked dapper in a blue suit complete with a grey waistcoat in the pics posted to Sam’s Instagram.
“I had the most wonderful Birthday yesterday 
#31,” Sam captioned the post.
“Feeling so excited about 2022 
Happy New Year 
#newbegginings#dreambig#newadventures#newdesires#freshstarts 
”
Sam’s fans and former Towie co-stars gushed at how amazing she looked and wished her a happy birthday.
Ferne McCann wrote: “Omg you get better every year love u baby mamma
.”
While Georgia Kousoulou simply added, “Beautiful
” and Francesca Allen commented, “GLOWINGGGGG
”.
Sam, who had stayed silent on rumours she is expecting for weeks, said she was “so happy and feeling blessed”.
Sam shared a sweet black and white image of her alongside Paul and their two children.
Son Paul Jr, five, and daughter Rosie, four, are shown kissing her baby bump while the pair looked on smiling.
The star explained in the announcement that they would be keeping the child’s gender under wraps.
Sam, famous for her Mummy Diaries series, wrote on Instagram: “Soon to be a family of 5
. We have a spring baby on the way 
“We’re so happy and feeling blessed
PS. Keeping this little one a surprise 
?.”
Sam and Paul have been an item since 2014, getting together in the wake of Sam’s break-up from fellow reality favourite Joey Essex.
The Celeb Report revealed in June that she was stepping down from her ITV show The Mummy Diaries to take a break from the cameras.
Her sister Billie, 31, decided to continue filming her own show, The Family Diaries, with husband Greg Shepherd, focusing on refurbishing her lavish £1.4million Essex mansion.
Mum-of-two Sam, who has filmed nine series, said: “After many months of consideration, I’ve decided that now feels like the right time to step away and to focus on new adventures.”
